ELMO in Trouble Again } Young Man Giving Back Hush Money
The man who accused Elmo voice Kevin Clash of having underaged sex with him, reportedly wants to recant his recantation.
Sheldon Stephens, 24, is interviewing lawyers in hopes of ripping up the $125,000 deal he reached last week with the famed puppeteer Clash, according to TMZ.
Stephens’s Pennsylvania lawyers last week released this statement: 'He [Stephens] wants it to be known that his sexual relationship with Mr. Clash was an adult consensual relationship.”
Now Stephens wants to go back to his previous position: That he and Clash had sex when he was just 16, according to the celebrity-gossip Web site.
Clash, a 52-year-old dirvorced Upper West Side dad, has been on a leave of absence from “Sesame Street” since the sordid story broke last week.
He’s conceded to having a fling with Stephens, but vehemently insists the sex didn’t happen until his boy toy became legal.
